Activities: Very quiet area. No theme parks, roller coasters, kiddie parks, etc. Shopping within 30-45 minutes; trips to Carrabelle, Wakulla, Apalachicola, East Point, Tallahassee are popular. Deep sea fishing boats leave from several local marinas. Wonderful restaurants within 15 minutes drive. Fishing from surf in front of the house this year yielded Spanish mackerel, flounder, whiting, and Redfish.

Area: Alligator Point is a narrow spit of land about 4 miles long. Most maps don't list it. Years ago, the area was called 'Lighthouse Point' before it was developed. Our house is at the most narrow part, thus the gulf-to-bay location. Our back yard is the Gulf of Mexico; our front yard is Alligator Bay. Nice easy sand path through the dunes to the beach....the bay is accessible in the front of the house and we recently added a 420' dock for fishing and boat mooring available upon request (inquire for details).

Highway 98 is the main highway that runs along the coast. Alligator Drive (Highway 370) cuts down to the peninsula just west of the big bridge over Ochlocknee Bay. Light shopping is available within 15 minutes of the house.

Rentals typically 7 day minimum but some exceptions and run from Sunday to Sunday unless other arrangements are made.

Long Term rentals available out of peak season

About Josh Simmons

This is our personal vacation home not a shabby rental investment filled with inexpensive worn furniture and run by a corporation. We take great pride in making it inviting and well appointed. The home has been renovated from top to bottom since we purchased the home and we have just renovated the master suite with new glass enclosed master shower and ship lap bedroom in the winter of 17. We are avid divers and spearfish year around in the amazingly bountiful waters of the gulf.

Josh Simmons purchased this House in 2014

What makes this House unique

One of the coveted few gulf to bay properties on The Point with waterviews from every room! Composite 420 sq ft deck overlooks the gulf as does the large screened porch.

Our family really enjoyed our stay. Located in a peaceful, quiet part of Florida, it was great for a relaxing beachfront vacation. Owners were very helpful, property is well cared for, wonderful spot for a getaway.

Thank you for sharing your beach house with us! We love the personal touches and decor is fantastic. The exotic slab dinning table and salvage ship lights belong on the pages of a design magazine. The huge back deck and screened in porch are perfect for watching the seagulls and sunset with a cocktail and the beach is literally at the foot of the steps. Can't wait for our next Alligator Point vacation!

Most relaxing week we've enjoyed in years! Watching the Dolphins & Pelicans were all the entertainment we needed. Angelo & Sons restaurant was well worth one evening away from the wonderful screen porch overlooking the ocean.

Great location on Alligator Point for me. My wife on the other hand was crazy about the interior. A lot of nice up grades: large ice make, high island counter top for cooking, barn style door over closet, custom wood table and chairs. Nice job owner. The view from the street of the house is so so, but easily overlooked once you step inside.
